Jennifer - thanks so much for that explanation. I never understood the reasoning behind those kinds of rules, but that makes total sense!

I think the problem is that it's not clear.

 

Linda - could you explain this to your guests? maybe if they understood why there was that rule, and they did the math, they would see that not only is there barely any diff in price but also that your hands are tied by a reasonable rule?

 

I know if someone explained it to me that would completely let me know that

1) if I want to go, i have to stay at EDR

2) if I wanted to stay somewhere else, I can't go to the wedding.

 

Simple decision for me, if I want to be at the wedding! :)

Perhaps in letting your guests know you could have a page on your website that says something about:

 

We very much prefer our guests to stay with us at EDR. This will allow us to spend more time with one another during the week doing fun things that are not necessarily wedding related. We all know how weddings are, they come and go so fast, and sometimes you do not have time to visit with all of your guests.

However, some people may choose the option to stay at a nearby resort for a variety of reasons.

I would like to point out that in choosing this option, please explore the options heavily first. While it may look better financially, there will be the cost of travel between your hotel and the EDR both ways. As well, to be on the grounds of any All Incusive hotel, all guests entering a hotel they are not staying at are required to pay for a day pass. That also applies to EDR. So for each day you choose to visit with us at EDR, there is a day pass fee of ____$. If you are consideing choseing an alternate hotel, please speak to myself or ____ so we can help you weigh out your options.

I do believe all guests who would stay at EDR will love it. In researching the different hotels in the Mayan, we felt confident that the rooms, reagrless of class, are all amazing and well appointed. We felt that there were many daily acaitivies to allow you to create the vacation you want , and we felt the abundance of restaruant and bar choices would suit everyones needs!

That is awesome, very well stated!
I may have to copy and paste that on my website if my guests start wanting to book elsewhere.

That's great BandE2008!!

 

I would also heavily stress that there is no guaratee that EDR will allow a day pass for your wedding, as they limit them to only 5! There is the very likely chance that they will not be allowed to come onsite and will miss the wedding.

 

A brief explainantion such as I provided above will help to clarify why they do the limit. Feel free to copy and paste.

      Cabo Azul Wedding Cost / Review

      By Emmma · Posted

      Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!

      Wedding venues and wedding planner in Costa Rica

      By KristinaH · Posted

      Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
